Leaders Nkana Visit Troubled Lime Hotspurs

Nkana coach Masauso Mwale says they will not underrate their bottom placed hosts Lime Hotspurs on Sunday.

The two sides clash in a MTN/FAZ Super Division Week Six fixture at The Trade Fair Grounds in Ndola.

Nkana is enjoying a flying start in the 2013 season and are unbeaten since the start of the campaign in March after collecting 13 points out of a possible 15.

Lime on the other hand is bottom in 16th place with just one point after five games played.

“I have watched lime, they are a good side,” Mwale told MTNFootball.com.

“You don’t judge a team just because they are at the bottom of the table because you will be doing that at your own peril.

“We respect them and we just have to go there looking for a positive result.”

Despite Mwale’s wary message, the tie still favours Nkana who beat Lime home and away 1-nil and 2-nil respectively in the 2011 season when the Ndola side was last in the Super Division.

The good news for Nkana is striker Reynold Kampamba is available after he was released from Zambia duty in a compromise that kept Festus Mbewe for the Zimbabwe friendly to be played on the same date at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka.

Influential midfielder Sydney Kalume too is available giving Mwale a big boost in their search for the three points and hopes of a first away win this season after drawing 1-1 at Green Buffaloes in Lusaka on April 4.
